Road construction season will soon begin, and a number of West Hartford streets are scheduled for complete reconstruction that includes installation of granite curbing and concrete driveway aprons, catch basin replacement, selective concrete sidewalk replacement, and repaving.

Reconstruction work is set to begin next month, and according to Town Engineer Duane Martin, during the 2018 construction season, the town plans to reconstruct the following roadways:

Wilfred Street

Bonny View Road

Smallwood Road

Bainbridge Road (Ballard Drive to Foxcroft Road)

In addition, other roadways are scheduled for repaving – which includes milling but not complete reconstruction. There will be three rounds of repaving (May, July, and September), and the first round of milling and paving should begin in May on the following roadways:

Boulevard (Trout Brook Drive to Quaker Lane South)

Ravenwood Road

Wendy Lane

Westmont (Clark Drive to Mountain Road)

Information about the two later rounds will be provided closer to the commencement date. All lists are tentative and subject to change.
